Our friend Alexander is back today with a new photo-update showing us around the beautiful and charming Disney's BoardWalk Resort, located right next to Epcot. While Disney is currently focused on the nearby Disney's Beach Resort (which is undergoing a major, multi-year refurbishment), some important changes are also planned for this hotel, including the opening of Trattoria al Forno, a new restaurant replacing Kouzzina. Let's take a look around:

Welcome home:

The beautiful lobby area:

Time to check out the actual boardwalk area of the hotel:

The themed pool:

One of the smallest arcades we have ever seen, still operational... for now:

Some snack locations around the area:

Kouzzina by Cat Cora is closed, of course:

The entrance has been blocked by tables:

No more menu:

Sings have been placed in front of the former restaurant:

The Atlantic Dance Hall:

It's very rare to see a woodpecker so close:

As you can see, work has begun at the Yacht & Beach Club:

The rooms of the Swan & Dolphin hotels are also being completely refurbished:

And that is all for now. Thank you for your support, and see you again real soon!
